Problems with values from paths other than the specified path

[a86236df74eecab0f8a3 (ＪＩＮＪＵ ＬＥＥ)]

hello.
I wanted to analyze log informatins in real time by receiving them from the Wi-Fi terminal. so I used rsyslog to get logs and saved them as /var/log/remote.log.

filebeat.yml
filebeat.inputs:

• type: log
  enabled: true
  paths:
  • /var/log/remote.log
    output.logstash:
    hosts: ["localhost:5043"]

logstash.conf
input {
beats {
port => "5043"
}
}

It is working. however there are two problems.

1. The value does not come in real time.
2. I set the path to /var/log/remote.log but the /var/log/syslog, /var/log/syslog3, /var/log/syslog4 logs are also included.

What should i do?

1. The value does not come in real time.

Are you parsing the date of the events, if you don't parse the date of the original event it will use a default date and events will appear to be created in batch instead of real time.

I set the path to /var/log/remote.log but the /var/log/syslog, /var/log/syslog3, /var/log/syslog4 logs are also included.

Do you have any module enabled by default?
